UV disinfection unit ULTRATOX™

waterfor chemical applications

Reducing Total Organic Carbon (TOC) is critical in applications such as semiconductors & microelectronics, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, process wastewater, and power generation where even the smallest contaminants can affect the quality of the products, if the microorganisms are allowed to spread through the organic impurities. The ULTRATOX™ series include ULTRATOX™ VUV lamps which are emitting light at 185nm wavelength – light that has more energy than the 254nm used in standard UV water disinfection applications. This vacuum UV light energy promotes the formation of OH- radicals from the photolysis of water. The OH-radicals react with the organic matter in the water leading to the oxidation into CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H20 (water), resulting in the removal of TOC. The ULTRATOX™ series has been optimized through a combined chemical process and CFD modeling approach. For additional improved efficiency, the system can be combined with the addition of other oxidants such as hydrogen peroxide and ozone.
